Support Rating

The support team was incredible from the beginning and continued to provide valuable tips. I think the ability to use SeekOut to search through GitHub for IT recruiting effectively is a compelling offering from SeekOut and could be a game changer. The support team helps me analytics dashboard for each specific campaign. I liked that emailing through SeekOut integrates with your email, so you don't have to be on SeekOut to respond.

Likelihood to Recommend

SeekOut is good, especially in retaining talent while focusing on sourcing for diversity and leveraging data to align workplace planning with your changing business needs. Create an internal talent pipeline based on skills, experience, or career goals—the ability to locate and track down top tech talent with clearances. SeekOut has been an enormous help. The ability to tailor the searches is fantastic, paired with the ability to pivot from the tailored searches to clone searches, which is perfect. The search functionality and customization options, the automated campaign messaging system (especially the humanization features such as the "send as reply" options), and the ability to tag candidates across multiple users to avoid duplicate contacting. But it is better if the features have easy navigation and simple features.
